200kg of sand and a series of concealed objects
Installation
2023
Sabbie Mobili is an installation displaying a mound of sand hiding a series of unique objects, meticulously collected by the artist over the years and then carefully buried. These objects, not to be unveiled, function as part of the installation and as notes for her potential future works. Through the act of burial of these objects, both lost, freed and preserved, the work presents a paradoxical archive of hidden objects of desire to contemplate the inherent value held within the concealed artifacts, embracing the belief that those hidden objects are indeed present under the sand.
